WOMEN: WARRNAMBOOL ROUND TABLE

Last Wednesday night I was delighted to host a women’s round table in
Warrnambool, which provided women from Geelong, Colac, Timboon, Terang,
Warrnambool, Camperdown and Hamilton an opportunity to meet with the Minister
for Women’s Affairs, Maxine Morand, to discuss issues they and other women face
in their communities. Much was learnt and exchanged, with new links being
forged. It was apparent that much more will be achieved by women in our
communities in the west and south-west of Victoria. I take this opportunity to
thank each and every woman who attended and participated in the forum, and I
particularly wish to thank Rochelle Hine for her assistance and her ongoing
commitment and sheer hard work for women in the West.
